This Title was first Penciled in on Cross -Section Paper- t in Tracing on Or/ginal 
Map this Paper was Shifted Sideways for each Line, 50 as to get Centers Lined 
up with General Center- Line of Title here. Finish each Line just as Indicated. 
In Lines I, 2 and 4- the Tops and Bottoms of Letters are Finished off by Free- 
hand Touches. I he fine Outlining for Shade -Line Strokes in Line 4- will 
wonderfully help Appearances.

Purely Single -Stroke Lettering Used here without any Fixing up. 
Here a Simple System of Counting a Space for a Letter, etc., was follow- 
ed in the Laying out. Finish up Title carefully on your Tracing > 
according to faintly outlined Suggestions given. The Prominence 
or Height of Portions of Title depends upon their relative Impor-

Methods 3.J ana 4.) are Employed Mainly for Portions fo be Emphasized and 
will make Imperfections in Formation and Finish of Letters Disappear^ giving 
an Effect of Fullness and Perfection, which of Course the Lettering does not 
otherwise possess.
